              The crew are pretty good at measuring, it's one of the things they do every day and is a key component of their job. So it always irks us, when a customer accuses us of mismeasuring (usually because they've screwed up themselves or they said they measured as we do, then it turns out they didn't).  Or it could be because of this, I grabbed the image from the web, but measuring tapes are often inaccurate and cheap plastic one's stretch with use…

                          I have friends who own and operate a flooring company and used to have an employee who swore up and down that an inch had 17 tick marks in it…(17/16).  They tried numerous times to explain you can't start and end on the inch mark...He didn't last very long.  😃

                            yup

                            never trust the end of the tape unless you've verified it

                            Pretty common to "burn an inch" on any sort of rule and start measuring at the 1" marker. Just have to remembered to subtract at the end.

                                      We have a friend who is very senior in the army and Paula and I have been invited to Horse Guards Parade on Monday for the queen' funeral.

                                      I sent her a note this morning….

                                      Understand we have invited to the ceremony on Monday, unfortunately, I will be in Morocco until the following week.  Any chance of postponing until I am back?  If not, I understand, but thanks anyway....G

                                      The answer was no......FFS
